Abstract

Reports on computer innovation in companies suggest that, in general, awareness lags behind application, and that there is considerable variation between functional areas. Why this should be is considered and five key factors are focused on which suggest that different specialisms lack awareness for different reasons. It is concluded that all managers must move from “ignorance” to “omniscience”.
